Cozy Telegram Guestbook turns your TRMNL into an ambient messaging board. Pair it with your own Telegram bot, anyone who scans the QR can leave a note, and the five most recent messages cascade on your display, naturally fading after 24 hours. Use it as a kitchen note board, office guestbook, family message wall, event display, classroom note drop, or a way for people to send chaos directly to your TRMNL. Built by Cozy Scenes.
Available settings
Bot Token
